Speedway ends banner year with Fall Fury
Fall Fury at Wiscasset Speedway was held Saturday, Oct. 5. Fall Fury was the last day of the racing season at Wiscasset Speedway. On the agenda at the Speedway were all eight racing divisions: New England 4-Cylinder Prostock, Mini Trucks, Thunder 4’s, Outlaw Mini, Strictly Street, Super Stock, Late Model Sportsman and Prostock.
Also racing Saturday were all divisions of the Wicked Good Vintage Racers, and the Amsoil Nelcar Legends. The flex race of the week was a one hundred lap Enduro.
A 30-lap Super Stock race was quick and straight forward. Starting at the pole position was the No. 2 of Josh Bailey. In second and third were the No. 48 of Dan Nessmith and the No. 05 of James Osmond. The only leader change came right at the start when Osmond passed Nessmith on the inside of turn one during lap one for second. Bailey watched the race from his rear view mirror, looking to see if they would catch up to him. Bailey took the checkered. This was Bailey’s ninth top three finish at Wiscasset. Placing second was Osmond. This was Osmond’s 11th top three win of the Wiscasset racing season. Rounding out the top three was Nessmith.
A 100 lap Enduro was the last race of the day. Twenty-seven cars competed in the race, and the track was full. The No. 22 of David Thurlow was an early race leader, but with 80 laps still to go, he dropped back after he went to the pits. The No. 101 of Nick Hanson also was an early race leader, but car trouble began to plague him also. No. 55 Kevin Sherman moved from his last place start to first by lap 32, and he managed to hang onto that lead for the remainder of the race, despite heavy competition. Sherman finished in first. No. 3 Randy Henderson finished second. Third place went to No. 02 Kyle Doery.
The Fall Fury event wrapped up the season for Wiscasset Speedway. Richard and Vanessa Jordan welcome everyone back next April for opening day.
